I say this as someone who posted on Daily Kos from the beginning (I think my user id is 3000, now it's about 150000).<BR/><BR/>On predictions, feel free to visit my November 20th post, where I outlined how McCain still had a chance in New Hampshire, at a time when everyone considered him dead.

Several others in traditional Republican-held seats narrowly won, and it was the netroots who raised the majority of the money for those people to be ultra-competitive, who otherwise would have seen very little money from the Democratic Party, because they were viewed as not winnable seats.<BR/><BR/> Markos and Daily Kos were leaders in that aspect of the game - do not underestimate their influence or what the netroots can do - else I might start calling you an elitist ;)Oxford County Liberalshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12181314055142726735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20358187.post-3892457417709598512008-01-10T18:46:00.000-05:002008-01-10T18:46:00.000-05:00"don't think for a minute the site and Markos don'..."don't think for a minute the site and Markos don't have enough influence to get significant Dems to do their plan."<BR/><BR/>Whenever Markos has mobilized the forces, his influence has turned out to be that of a paper tiger.Steve Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04871113039374739208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20358187.post-33214915605232473712008-01-10T18:39:00.000-05:002008-01-10T18:39:00.000-05:00mcguireYou make a great point, which is why some a...mcguire<BR/><BR/>You make a great point, which is why some are wondering why Huckabee is only campaigning in the state for a day this weekend.Steve Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04871113039374739208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20358187.post-25009319891265321702008-01-10T18:38:00.000-05:002008-01-10T18:38:00.000-05:00"Actually Steve, this poll here shows Huckabee in ..."Actually Steve, this poll here shows Huckabee in the lead in Michigan, with Romney a pct point behind him, and McCain in 3rd, so I wouldn't get out the McCain bandwagon just yet.

He was a nasty piece of work as a Harris Cabinet Minister and could be even more dangerous if Harper (or his wife???) does not occasionally tell his wife to shut up.<BR/><BR/>In the next election campaign, Dion should run attack ads targeted at Baird. His Bali record along with the one in Ontario would be baggage for Harper to overcome. At worst, it may salvage the province for us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20358187.post-26372235964809842372008-01-10T15:31:00.000-05:002008-01-10T15:31:00.000-05:00mushroomThat is pretty much verbatum Baird, especi...mushroom<BR/><BR/>That is pretty much verbatum Baird, especially the "unilateral" angle.

This primary shows that if the Grits somehow encourage the Canadian Cons to dial up the nasty meter, they can self-destruct themselves.<BR/><BR/>There will be no comparisons between Romney and Harper. Harper threw away his ideology for the sake of a majority.
